I worked on a small surface and it was tricky but in the end, I triumphed!

SPECIAL QUOTE

"Somebody needs to look at you and see who you really are, you are more than this, greater than this, don't define yourself because of your present circumstances...it doesn't work that way.

Vision is the most dominant force lacking in today's shortsighted society.

Don't be locked up in your past, step back and breath in and now walk into the calling that has been tugging at your heart since you were a baby. You are responsible and you are going to give an account if you remain there.

Don't live a phony, fake, delusional life, cease from yesterday, be a today person, this is it!" -Triple A .

WHAT INSPIRES ME TO KEEP SKETCHING

"Drawing is everything. When I was sixteen, I made over 400 drawings during that winter and spring. I drew mostly with a 2B pencil on typewriter paper. I drew during every spare moment. I’m heartened when I see your sketchbooks and see the way you’re always drawing at the Concept workshops. You remind me of me. When I was teaching university, I was disheartened by students who hadn’t paid their drawing dues, for unless you practice, you simply don’t know how to make lovely lines."-William Whitaker"Drawing is the basis of everything. All the way through the painting you must be questioning the drawing, right up to the very end. Otherwise you get the drawing right and fill it in with colour. As long as you get the effect you want, that's the important thing. You can use a piece of rag, a sable brush, a hoghair brush or a knife - it doesn't matter what."

Socrates on Brazil and their failure in the 2010 World Cup

"Brazilians are very creative and the way this team was, it was not like that".

"It was very predictable - we don't do things correctly like Europeans, we like to improvise.

"Football is an art and players should be allowed to show creativity. If the coach gives freedom to the players to play the way they know how, they can do it.

"If [painters] Vincent van Gogh and Edgar Degas had known when they were doing their work the level of recognition that they were going to have, they would not have done them the same. You have to enjoy doing the art and not think 'will I win?'".
